You are better off in blaze orange that has been washed in a detergent that doesn�t have �brighteners� than you are in new camo or camo that has been washed in detergent that does include �brighteners�. The :brighteners� enhance the UV reflectivity of the material. Manufacturers add UV brighteners to new clothing because it catches your eye better � just like it does for game, but not to the same degree.
This has been my experience. I wash all clothes that might go out in the field with me in UV blockers, and just worry about breaking up my outline.
